Sunesis Pharmaceuticals - On track with vecabrutinib

On the Q118 conference call, Sunesis provided an update of its ongoing vecabrutinib Phase Ib/II trial. The study is continuing to enrol the 50mg cohort in the dose-ranging Phase I portion of the study. This cohort was previously expanded to six patients per the protocol due to an adverse event, but no further dose-limiting events have been reported. The company reiterated guidance that the dose ranging would be complete in autumn 2018 and that it will present preliminary efficacy data at a medical conference.
